Chapter 3: New Smells

Lyn walked up the shrine steps with Ms. Higurashi. Her heartbeat was going faster and faster with every step.

' What if they don't like me?' Lyn thought, ' I don't want to go back to that 'shit-hole' they call an orphanage. I can't. . . I won't.' Lyn shook her head, trying to get the bad thoughts out of her.


Meanwhile. . . back in Kagome's room, you can hear a very angry hanyou trying to win a battle.

"YOUR TAKING TO LONG WENCH!!" yelled a flustered inu hanyou, "WHY AREN'T YOU PACKING UP!!"

"For the last time, InuYasha, I'm not going back today." Kagome staited, her arms crossed and staring down at the dog-boy on her bed.

"WHY NOT?!"

"My cousin is coming to live with us."

"So?"

"So. . . I have to introduce her to every one. And I have to show her around."

"Can't someone else do that?"

"No. . . only I can speak her language well enough for her to understand."

"Feh."

Kagome couldn't take it anymore. " Why is he always like this?' she thought, ' Why can't he be the kind and understanding hanyou I know he could be."

She walked downstairs to wait for the arrival of her cousin. She didn't even notice the low protective growl thar InuYasha adnitted out of his throat when she walked out.


Lyn liked the look of this new place. The huge tree in the front sent out a good feeling through out her body.

' It smells so fresh here.' Lyn sighed.

They walked up a couple of more steps that led to a house. It wasn't anything fancy, but Lyn couldn't help the urge to run ahead and knock at the door.

'She must be very egar to meet the family.' Ms. Higurashi smiled as she followed the young youth that was already at the door.

As the door opened, Lyn smelt something funny. 'What the -- ' a girl 2 or 3 years older than Lyn answered the door. She was wearing a green school skirt and a matching school blouse. Her eyes sparkled with the smile that she admitted. She had long raven-blck hair that reached the upper part of her back. To Lyn. . . she looked just like her mother.

"Konnichiwa. . . Hello, my name is Kagome." the young girl said in English.

' She can speak my language!!' Lyn thought.

"You must be Lyn." her smile was bright and warm.

Lyn nodded her head, but at the same time, she still couldn't get that strange sent out of the nose.

'It smells so weird.' thought Lyn as she stepped inside with Ms. Higurashi, who at some point caught up with her, ' but the sent is so familiar.'


InuYasha looked out the window, deep in his own thoughts.

' Why doesn't she just leave with me for once? ' the inu hanyou thought, totoally ingnoring the sent of someone new.

He closed his eyes tight to try and focus. That's when it hit him like a ton of bricks.

' It couldn't be!!' InuYasha thought as he smelt the air again, 'That's Impossoble!!'

He slowly walked out of Kagome's room and peeked downstairs.

Everyone was there, surrounding a young girl. She was odd looking. He never saw anyone dressed so strange. Her clothes were obviously to huge for her slim body. And what was with the dog collar? InuYasha's curiosity got the best of him.

He just had to figure out who this person was.

He cassually walked downstairs toward the group. He glided, making sure not to make a sound, as if he was water going downhill.

He couldn't beleive what he was smelling. The strong sent that flooded his nose was that of a hanyou.
